NEBRASKA CITY, NEB., June 27.-Quinn
B0hannon, under sentence Ofdeath, await
ing the decision of the United States IL
preme Court, escaped from the county
Jail Saturday night and has not yet been
recaptured The manner of his escape
is a mystery. He was in his cell with
the doors securely fastened, and every
thing was in the same condition Sunday
morning, but the prisoner was gone. Sey-
eral years ago Bohannon tried to bribe.a
former taller, but was unsuccessful The
escaped prisoner is the slickest and most
accomplished criminal in the West, and
was formerly member of the noted Nc
Waters gang of outlaws which terro lied
Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri. He
was leader of the gang during the cele-
brated penitentary revolt number of
years ago, at which time McWaters lost
his life. Bohannon is accredited with
the commission of almost every crime
imaginable, and has killed number
Of men The last one, for which ne was
under the death sentence, was because
his victim differed with him about the
spelling of the word "peddler A reward
Of $500 has been offered for his recapture,
but il is doubtful if he will ever be taken
alive. Dick Glocke, a guard at the Jail,
was arrested to.nis ht for assisting B0han-
non to escape the other prisoners assert
ing that Glocke opened the door. They
saw BOhannon walk out about O'Clock.

THE FIRST BLOOD.
HENRY TAYLOR KILLED on THE
WV RESERVOIR RAILWAY.

Another sad Warning to Bad Boys who
Rush Into Danger and Death Despite
Every Precaution and Entreaty The
Railway Company Entirely BIameIes~.
Ever since the city railway has ex-
tended its lines TO Hollywood and the
New Reservoir IL has required great
share Of the drivers time and attention
to keep boys off the cars. Persuasion
and threats have no avail. and the drivers
in return only receive abuse. This has
been particularly the case on the western
extension 10 Mulberry street. But jump
ing on the no se-cars is vastly different
from Jumping on steam-engine, as was
found out Sunday morning.
About II o'clock Henry Taylor small
colored boy, who was among many 9th
ers who were stealing ride on the cars
fell between the car and the engine, and
was run over and both of his legs were
crushed
The engine was at once stopped and
the poor little fellow was at once taken
to his home, at 80. 30j West Broad
street. DR.. r. +. Jones was summoned
and both legs had 10 be amputated. He
fingered until yesterday morning about 3
o'clock, when he died
There was great sympathy expressed
for him and for his mother
II was hoped that after the sad death
of the little white boy on Seventeenth
street, reported a few weeks ago, that
this was the last accident Of the kind.
But they will occur so long as boys viii
lump on cars in motion II is feryently
hoped that this will be the asst The
officer Of the train was entirely biameless
in this accident and the mother of the
boy herself said that his death was due
to bis own wilfulnesS.
BIG SUNDAY TRAVEL.
The cars were crowded all day until a
/ late hour at night I'm view of the large
number Of passengers on the trains every
+ body should use great caution in their
movements At5he Reservoir street ter
minus and az the stables 10 looked like a
"Fai. day there were such crowds wait
+ ing to ride ON the rail.
4 complaint that was entirely ground
less was made at the INES Office Satur-
day evening Ii was charged that pas
sengers getting on west of Laurel and
Main streets or ON the Hollywood cXten-
sion were charged ten cents TO ride TO
Mulberry street.
The TINES reporter declined to publish

IT, He did So. and found ont, as be sup

Passengers getting ON the Hollywood
extension and riding east are transferred

then separated, and Womack was ar
rested by officers Wilkinson and sutton
and taken 10 the Second police station,
where Mr. Fuqua swOre out a warrant
charging him with attempting to shoot

Mr.. Womack denies this and asserts
that several persons threw him down,
and one man he did not know, was
choking him, and it was then that he
fired. lie stated that the man then ran
out of the door. None of the witnesses
present at the police station knew the
name OF the man referred to. Justice
Jno c. Teller after hearing several wit
nesses bailed Mr.. Womack in the sum of
$500 TO appear before the Police Justice

rnEcArsE OF THE TROUBLE.

The following has been given as cor
rect account of the origin Of the dilliculty
several weeks ago Mr. Womack, who is
an Electrician. told Mr.. VI. w Gale. "a
fireman. that Chief Fuqua had stated that
no one could get into the Fire Depart
ment unless ne was knight Of Labor.
Gale made use of this statement in pub
lished card, which was replied to by Flu
qua in a card containing reflections on
W0mack The latter has been away from
the city for several days, and only re-
turned and heard of the card yesterday.
He then went TO the Council Chamber,
